Answer:

Explanation:

-12.4x + 8x > -0.4x - 5.2 - 2.7

Add similar elements: -12.4x + 8x = -4.4x

-4.4x > -0.4x - 5.2 - 2.7

Subtract -5.2 - 2.7: -7.9

-4.4x > -0.4x - 7.9

Multiply both sides by 10

-4.4x · 10 > -0.4x - 7.9 · 10

Refine

-44x > -4x - 79

Add 4x to both sides

-44x + 4x > -4x - 79 + 4x

Simplify

-40x > -79

Multiply both sides by -1 (Reverse the inequality)

-40x (-1) > -79 (-1)

Simplify

40x < 79

Divide both sides by 40

40x / 40 < 79 / 40

Simplify

x < ⁷⁹⁄₄₀

Turn the fraction into a decimal

A ladder 10 feet long rests against a vertical wall. Let θ be the angle between the top of the ladder and the wall, and let x be

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of ladder, y = 10 ft

θ = π/3 rad

Using cosine rule,

Sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin θ = x/y

Sin θ = x/10

Differentiating both sides with respect to dθ,

10 × cos θ × dθ = dx

10 cos θ = dx/dθ

dx/dθ = 10 × cos π/3

= 5 ft/radians.
